SMS - be careful

A true story:
A lady's handbag, which contained her mobile, credit card, purse..etc, was stolen.

Twenty minutes later, when she called her hubby, telling him what had happened, the hubby says "I've just received your SMS asking about our PIN number, and I've replied a little while ago."

Shocked, they rushed down to the bank only to be told by the bank staff that all their money was already withdrawn! The pickpocket had actually used the stolen handphone to SMS "hubby" in the contact list and got hold of the PIN number. Within 20 minutes, he had withdrawn all the money from the bank account.

Lesson to be learnt:
Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list. Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad, Mum, etc.... and very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked through SMS, confirm by CALLING BACK!

[I have no confirmation that this is true, but it might very well be, and if no thief has had this idea before, they will have.]
